A Moment

We went up to Copperton and found some fun places for pics. We're going up again this week for better light so hopefully I can get some better pics of Christian and I...you'll see why! I'm so glad my dad lets me use his camera because we can get some great stuff! Oh and kudos to Picnik for some fun picture editing it let me do!! What do you think?

We thunk it and then it wasn't

March.

Why do I expect spring weather every March when it never happens? This year was NO exception...worse in fact! Ah well...we took as many bike rides as possible anyway...with just a few extra layers!

In March Christian and I started My Fitness Pal (MFP) and what a fun journey it has been! We changed our lifestyle. After I had Spencer my weight sky rocketed and I wasn't going to have it. As much as I hate it I will post a picture of me in March...and this picture is 10lbs lighter than my heaviest! I let myself get away and it makes me sick to think about it! Christian and I, along with several other family members, have been so successful with MFP! I feel so awesome these days and Christian and I are now training for the So Jo Half Marathon in September.

Oh and I have to add that Christian is looking mighty fine these days. Mmmm...mmmm!!!

Here are some pictures to re-cap our March

Freezing but we were anxious to get out!!They always tend to fall asleep at some point. Spence had just woken up but Ava was pooped!Okay...here it is. Christian and I before the big weight loss! As of this picture Christian is down 22lbs and I am down 33lbs. I can't believe we had that much to lose...and we're still going! Ew...this picture is gross!!!
FYI: My SIL, Mary, just called and informed me that this picture is a "bad" picture. Why? She said that this picture makes Christian and I look bigger than we ever were. Makes me feel a little better because this picture is HIDEOUS!! ;)
Our photo shoot was in March and these are my favorites...


April was way more exciting so stay tuned!!

Ketchup makes everything better...

And so does a little bit of CATCH-UP! I am overwhelmed. I have not blogged because I dread the "ketchup". I had a moment of blogger's itch. It's gone now. *Sigh* I can do this.

my blog = family scrapbook.

It will be printed. bound. displayed. This means I must backtrack...just a little ;)

I can do this.

February.

trouble. bath. beauty. {snap}.

Spencer's first bath sitting up!
Ava was thrilled.

Loved it. Trouble.


Beautiful. She feeds off of this kind of thing!
{snap}. He's adorable
In February Ava was nearly 3. Talks...A LOT. Pretends. Excited for her birthday party. Fit thrower. Movie watcher. Princess...seriously.
Spencer was 6 months. Sitting up. Free smiles. Couch potato.
Stats:

Weight: 13.9lbs (5%ile)
Height: 25.6 in. (25%ile)
Coming up....March

Lame

I know...Lame! I haven't posted in a month and THIS is what I decide to post on now!! It's called Groupon and my SIL's just made me aware of it today. It looks like great fun at great prices. We just got today's deal and it looks like we are going to a movie with popcorn and a drink for $10!! Can't beat that!

Click here to go to Groupon.com

With that said, I will get on and update on us soon. We have been busy!

Who?

All these crafty ideas that have been running through my mind this past year have finally started to make it onto canvas! This one turned out better than I had imagined it could. I'm really excited about it! I call these 'embellished art' and everything on them are original designs. I don't know what I'm going to do with them...maybe sell them or gift them. Whatever I do with them doesn't matter cause I LOVE creating them...even if they sit around for a while!!
